Organised by 374 Ertico-ITS Europe and ETSI, the third eCall testfest was held at CTAG in Spain at the end of October, joined by new IVS (in vehicle system) and PSAP (public safety answering point) vendors from all over the world.
The event was supported by CETECOM, the1690 European Commission and the HeERO2 project.
During the five days of the event, hundreds of pairing sessions were organised. Each session, lasting two hours, allowed one IVS unit to test with one PSAP unit or against a test system. This set-up, combined with the collaboration between parties, allowed engineers to understand and improve their implementation, if required. After each day of testing, a briefing enabled all participants to share feedback and discuss the eCall standards with supporting experts.
All test results were reported using the ETSI test reporting tool, allowing all participants to receive a report with the results of all test sessions they attended.
The eCall Workshop held on 29 October presented test methodology and procedures applicable for eCall devices. Workshop participants were given the opportunity to attend the testfest sessions and see first-hand the benefits of the interoperability testing. The workshop was followed by a visit of the CTAG facilities, with particular focus on research and development activities dedicated to state of the art ITS technologies.
